Nicaragua Microlot La Bendicion Farm (Ana Carolina’s Peach Candy Nanolot)

La Bendicion Farm (Nicaragua)

We love this coffee because it has a peach candy taste. This washed process coffee doesn’t come easy. Ana Carolina is the farmer of La Bendicion farm. She produces a 100% red catuai variety. She travels extensively to a 2-hour journey down the mountain to the dry mill. The entire farm is depulped by a hand crank. Ana Carolina hopes to build a new wet mill in the near future and to continue improving her farm’s yield with support from Gold Mountain.

At Banyan Coffee Roasters, one of our near-term goals is to start visiting the farmers that we work directly with. Bridging the gaps and creating a better relationship with our farmers will trickly down to the coffee consumer. When we source ethical coffee, everyone wins. Better wages and stability to the farmer, coffee roaster works with a better product and the Bradenton and Sarasota coffee shop produces a better cup of coffee to the customer.
